Answer:d) longitudinal,Hima Dri
- The longitudinal valley is a longitudinal valley, known as 'duns' in the west and 'duars' in the east, between the lesser Himalayas and Shivalik.
- Unlike typical river valleys, duns have a structural origin and are filled with boulders and gravel resulting from the erosion of the Himalayas and the Shiwalik uplands. Dehra, Kotharii, Chaukham, Patli, and Kota are the greatest duns found in the area.
- With over 500 bird species having been reported within the valley and in the surrounding areas, including the Mussoorie Hills and Rajaji National Park, the Doon Valley is ecologically rich, particularly in birdlife.
- The reserved forests and community forests in the district, in and around the valley, are also botanically rich in terms of forests (esp. Sal or Shorea robusta, and Teak), flowering and fruiting trees, natural wetlands, and Terai and Bhabar habitats
